The Bayou

Less than 2 miles from our house is a walking/biking trail called the Bayou. It follows a series of natural swampy lakes. A few weeks ago Gwen came to visit us in Texas. We took her to the Bayou, the kids were hoping to show her an alligator, but we didn't see one. We just saw lots of fish and turtles.

Last week we went back to the Bayou and Jared spotted an alligator, just as we were getting ready to leave. That was the first time I've seen an alligator in Katy.

Can you find the alligator?

Jared and Sara pretending to be scared. The alligator is about 8 feet away from the viewing platform, to the far left of the picture, you can just see his eyes poking out of the water.

Jake....just being cute.
